About

My name is Tatiana Arbelaez, and I am the founder and creator of Natura Beads.

Everything began during my return to Colombia, the country where I was born. I spent three months volunteering as an English teacher at a children’s foundation on the Caribbean coast, in Buritaca near Santa Marta in 2023. During my free time, I took a one-hour beaded jewellery class simply out of curiosity and my love for creating with my hands. The first bracelet took much longer than expected ( below a picture for your reference ) but it opened the door to a world I instantly fell in love with.
Inspired by indigenous beadwork and the meaning behind it, I began teaching myself and creating pieces for friends and family.
What started as a personal passion soon grew into Natura Beads, allowing me to bring this beautiful art to London and share it with the world.
Today, Natura Beads is my way of celebrating handmade creation, culture, and patience in a world of fast fashion.

Every Natura Beads piece is made entirely by hand. Orders may take a little longer, but the care and love poured into each creation make the wait worthwhile.

This time and attention are what make each piece truly unique.
Thank you for your patience and for supporting handmade art
